Happy 70th Birthday Mom!

Okay, so I never did post pictures from my last visit to see the twins. They were sleeping and I was waiting for them to wake up! Maybe next time.

Work has been slow and been cutting hours. Retail after the holidays...yippee! I finished work today and have a 3 day weekend. Hum! What shall I do? I am so looking forward to one day in my pj's. Oh yeah! I think that was yesterday when I also had the day off :)

Good morning,
I am doing much better today! I have today and tomorrow off from work :)
Today will be busy, I need to go to the chiropractor, I have a appointment for a haircut, and I have errands to run. I am up early so I can get busy, because today I am going to see some of my nieces and nephews. I am so looking forward to it. I hope to take some pictures to post later today. Till then ta-ta!

Memories of January 8th

I made it through the day, however not without crying many tears in the last two days! Today marks the 14 th year since John passed away. Last night at dinner Andy and I discussed that night. I sat there with big crocodile tears running down my face as we talked. Someone at the funeral told me it gets easier in time, at that time I didn't see how! It does get easier as time goes on, but it is something that you never forget. Each year on this day a million questions and memories come rushing back into my life. I know that God does things for a reason, I am just not sure what that reason is or was!

2007 - 2008


Hello... wow here it is almost the end of the year! Guess we are ringing out 2007 with a cold. I started getting sick this last week and now Andy is starting with it! We want to wish everyone a Safe and Happy New Year. We will be staying in on New Years Eve, and most likely will be sleeping long before midnight! They are calling for snow, so Andy may have to work on Tuesday. I work New Years Eve until 2:45pm and the I am off Tuesday ( a paid Holiday :) ) and off on Wednesday. The Lucas Family will be having a New Years Day get together and we plan to go to that, or maybe I should say I do if Andy has to work. We enjoyed time with both family's for Christmas this year. Andy's niece Jessie had everyone to her home in Hastings on the Saturday before Christmas. We enjoyed our time with the family members that was able to attend, and missed the ones that were unable to attended due to Christmas schedule conflicts. We just want to say, Thank You Jessie!

We had another year that Andy could attened Christmas Day at my parents on the other side of the state. This makes 2 in a row. He thinks I am his good luck charm since in the last 13 years he has only had last Christmas Day and this Christmas Day off.

We received many nice gifts and many beautiful Christmas cards and photos and letters. Thanks to all for those.

We celebrated 6 months of marriage on 12/23/07. I can hardly belive it has been that long, seems just like a day or so ago.

Please be safe ending 2007 and Happy 2008 New Year !

December 2007 ...

Where has this year gone?

I can hardly believe Andy and I have been married almost 6 months :)

We are getting the house ready for Christmas. Andy put up lights along the roof and we have some in the living room windows. I have the tree up with just the lights on it, hope to get that decorated by the weekend. We still have a metal star to get up out side that Andy's brother Randy gave us. Then I hope to take some pictures and post.

Andy has been called into work for snow and ice this week, and sounds like more through the weekend. I have today off. We need to get some of our Christmas shopping started. I hope to have a day that we can both go and get it done in one day! Working retail I sure have no desire to shop on my days off.
